Be sure to use the latest phpVMS v7 dev release - not the beta.

No - but it's not difficult and should take less than 1 hour. See the docs for info - https://docs.phpvms.net/

Your current skin in v5 will NOT import to v7 as a theme. However, you can customize the default, use the Disposable freeware theme or do your own theme to closely mimic your present look and feel. Airports, airlines, flights (schedules in v5), PIREPS, pilots will all import. Your best bet is to install v7 using option 1 to a subdomain via the legacy import and see what it looks like and what it moves over from v5. This way, you can play around with it and tweak it without affecting your present live v5 site. Just process all PIREPS, make a backup of the v5 database and use that backup db for the legacy import. There is also an addon to import awards - although it may be for a specific v5 awards module. The same developer who did the awards import addon is working on other addon imports as well.

phpVMS v2/v5 is over 15 years old. Much has changed in that period of time. It's had a good run. No software works forever. Time to move forward. phpVMS v7 is the first major rewrite in 15 years.

Your current v5 modules will not work in v7. Design wise - you can customized the theme in v7 to closely mimic your v5 site.

PHP 5.6 will work with that phpVMS version. You will still have functionality issues with MariaDB 10.6 though. I'd suggest installing the latest dev release of phpVMS v7 to a subdomain and looking into what is actually included and what addons are available. You may find that some of your v5 addons aren't needed. As hosts update PHP and MySQL/MariaDB versions, phpVMS v5 will have more issues and eventually cease to work. About the only way around that is to run your own VPS.

V5 modules will not work in V7. They can not be easily converted and would likely need to be fully re-developed. Chances are that with MariaDB 10.6, you will find that some needed fuctions don't work as expected or at all. Check out v7. Many items that required modules in v5 are included in v7. Once v7 is in general release, I anticipate that new modukes will be developed. Go to the admon page and look in the lower right corner. What phpVMS version are you using?

For phpVMS version, go to /public_html/core and look in the version file. Report back here with the contents. How old is this install? There is no phpVMS 5.6 - there is 5.5.2 and 5.5.2.72 Neither will fully work with PHP 7.4 and/or MariaDB 10.6 For full functionality of phpVMS 5.5.2.72, PHP version from 7.0 to 7.2 and MySQL 5.6 to 5.7.4 or MariaDB up to 10.2 . For phpVMS 5.5.2, PHP version 5.4 to 5.6 and MySQL 5.6 or MariaDB up to 10.2 . If your database for this install is intact, time to move to phpVMS v7 by doing a legacy import. Check the docs link in the menu at the top of the page for minimum requirements. Check if your host support all minimum requirements. I guess you could try recreating assets, airports and admin. But it may not be worth the time it takes and there may still be other issues.

@Alexan If you can supply the info in the above post, we may be able to assist you.

A few things. 1 - you posted in the phpVMS v7 section of the forums not the v5 section. I will move this to the v5 section. 2 - we need to know PHP version, MySQL/MariaDB version, exact phpVMS version. 3 - new install or existing install? 4 - what was the last thing you did that caused the error? 5 - did you make any changes to app.config.php at any time?

Config maps? https://docs.phpvms.net/acars/configmaps What version of phpVMS and vmsACARS are you using?

Don't use beta 5. Use the latest dev release available from the discord #v7-releases channel. Directly upload that package and extract to the chosen phpvms folder. If you set up a sub-domain for phpVMS, use option #1 in the docs to install.

Are you using the latest dev version of phpVMS available in the discord v7-releases channel? If you can go to your website in a browser, your database settings are correct. You could possibly be missing the departure and/or arrival airport in your database.

Each page is stored separately in the database. You can edit them thru the admin panel or (after backing up the database) directly using phpmyadmin - although it is safer via the admin panel. They are NOT stored in a file like they were in previous versions as far as I can tell.

However you access your v7 database. Different hosts use different panels or access methods.

Look in that database table - your answer is there.

Database, 'pages' table

Care to share exactly what you edited for other users that may want to do the same?

The env.php file has been replaced by the .env file. All the email settings are in there. Return the config.php file to its default state. In addition to the link kindly provided by @DisposableHero , your hosting panel should provide an Email Accounts area with valuable info. If your hosting provides cPanel, have a look at this article to set up SMTP https://cpanel.net/blog/tips-and-tricks/setting-up-and-troubleshooting-smtp-in-cpanel/ I would suggest updating any phpVMS v7 sites you help with to the latest dev build, available in the #v7-releases channel of the phpVMS discord.

Did you install phpVMS v7 beta 5 or the latest dev build from the discord releases channel? Did you clear the cache after changing any files and before setting the theme to other than default?

Quite possibly. I guess we will have to wait for the OP to respond to know for sure. And as your and I have previously discussed many times, any new VA's should be using phpVMS v7 - no wasting time by starting a phpVMS based VA using va5. 😵

See the docs and guides. Look for subfleets.

Already included in the base phpVMS v7program. You can import and export routes.

Createa a new database. The phpVMS v5.5.2.72 database is not compatible with v7. As you progress thru the v7 install, look on the upper right of the screen for red letters saying something about a Legacy Import. Choose that option to import "most" of your v5 data into your new v7 database. Be sure to use the latest dev version from yesterday (or newer) so your v5 financial data imports to v7. There will still be a good bit of work to do setting up subfleets and assigning them to flights (schedules in v5) and some other stuff. Be sure to set up the v7.env file for email as soon as the install is complete. The bottom pic with the warnings looks to be from v5. When installing v7, use Option1 in the docs. Nothing from v7 goes in the public_html directory. Later, when you're ready to go live, you can redirect your domain to your v7 sub-domain.

What exact latest version are you using? Beta 5 or the latest Dev version from the #v7-releases channel on Discord? Who is the host? Shared, VPN, other? All default or any addon themes or modules?
